Travata Eviction Risk: Elevated

4 census tracts · pop 38,795 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.7/10 · range 7.4–8.8

Travata is a 4-tract neighborhood of Irvine, CA, population 38,795. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.7/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Against a Irvine baseline of 31.5%, 53% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 7.4 to 8.8. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10.

Disability prevalence reaches 19.2% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. 4.5% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Among the 28 mapped neighborhoods of Irvine, it ranks #7 by risk, the upper third.

Average gross rent runs $3,007, close to the Irvine average. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $127,858. 62% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
